Description
Teenager Mitzi hits
Heropa with 9mm pistols blazing – targeted for recruitment, betrayal and
assassination.
Teenage gunsel-cum-aspiring-hero Mitzi
(last name unknown) breezes into Heropa with twin 9 mm pistols blazing – only
to be targeted for recruitment, betrayal and assassination. French femmes
fatale, an out-of-touch super-powered elite, and one hell of an underlying
mystery figure heavily in this fusion neo-noir, science-fiction dystopia.
Interweaving the scrappy one-liners is a story much more than the sum of its
parts, concerning questions about grand creative process.
